Amazing
I devoured this book. It was everything I expected and more. I love Meadow and her family. I think the concept is very unique, and I can’t wait to discover more about their world in The Murder Complex.
What makes the protagonist so interesting is that she doesn’t mind killing people. Instantly she is different from other heroines, and I’m so grateful for that.
Basically, if you love reading, you will love this book.
An Awesome, Bloody, Addictive Reading!
When I first heard about THE MURDER COMPLEX, I was already interested in reading it. So when I heard about the prequel novella, I always already pumped of reading it. So when I got it just now, I was so pumped of reading it. And right away, I was hooked into the story by the first sentence. Meadow Woodson lives in a world where its kill or be killed with barcodes on their foreheads. And I mean that LITERALLY!!! Meadow lives in a boathouse with her parents and her older brother and younger sister, and it is interesting to see how this family functioned in this bloody world. As the story progresses, it shows how tough and dangerous the world Meadow lives is. After reading it, I am so PUMPED on reading THE MURDER COMPLEX!!!! I am so sure that it would be a smash hit!!!!
